Good day everyone,
I needed some assistance, I want to read some handwritten documents with UiPath what’s the best possible way to do that?
Examples are: this is a jpg
This is the pdf:
I was trying the ‘Read PDF text’ activity but It seems like I need to download it’s package in order to use it, but I am not sure which one.
Read PDF text can’t handle this scenario. Use Document Understanding with Generative Extractor [ Long/Short Document Complex Layout Extractor] or IXP for this.
Use good OCR to digitize the document, then you can use Regular expression to extract the data.
A better way to do this in an enterprise setup is to use Document Understanding Process, which will help you handle it better.
You need to involve ocr for this
Either via read pdf with ocr or using document understanding
If plain data reas is needed read pdf with ocr should suffice
Cheers
UiPath’s Document Understanding (DU) framework supports handwriting recognition via these components:
1.Digitize Document activity
2.ML Extractor or AI Center models (for handwriting)
3.Classification and Extraction activities
Use OCR Engine That Supports Handwriting:
4.For handwriting, use one of:
Google Cloud Vision OCR (supports handwriting)
Microsoft Read OCR (Azure Computer Vision) – good for handwritten text
OmniPage OCR (limited handwriting support)
Abbyy Cloud OCR (paid, excellent handwriting recognition)
